For customers whose delivery address is within Australia, the price that appears on the site and when added to your shopping trolley is also the GST-inclusive price. For these transactions the GST component will later be deducted and forwarded to the Australian Tax Department.
If the delivery address of the customer is outside Australia, the prices displayed are the retail prices, with no GST liability payable by MUP.COM-PL.

3.Ordering Goods
Any order placed by you in the manner described in this Web Site is an offer by you to purchase a particular product or service for the price (including the delivery and other charges) specified in this Web Site at the time you place your order. MUP.COM-PL reserves the right to accept or reject your offer for any reason, including, without limitation, the unavailability of any product, an error in the price or the product description posted on this Web Site, or an error in your order. There may be reasons why MUP.COM-PL cannot fulfil your order. Therefore, your contract with MUP.COM-PL only comes into existence when MUP.COM-PL advises you that it has accepted your order and receipt of your payment has been confirmed.
Prices of products and services and delivery and other charges displayed on this Web Site are current at the time of issue, but may change at any time and are subject to availability. The availability of products and services may change from time to time.

MUP.COM-PL will retain title to the products you order until you have made payment in full for those products, but all risk in the products will pass to you on dispatch from MUP.COM-PL's distribution centre.

You are responsible for any taxes, duties or other liabilities imposed by any governmental agency, including without limitation, any customs duty, goods and services taxes or any value added tax imposed on any products or services acquired or ordered by you from this Web Site unless otherwise stated in the pricing information.
